Summary<\/h2><\/div>

The range of potential electronically-stored information (ESI) sources is continually multiplying and diversifying. In order to work with that diverse range of materials during assessment, during review, at depositions, and at trial, we need a way to avoid using as many different pieces of software as there are types of sources and a way to enable searching and document identification across different source types. It is for these reasons that we need processing. Moreover, ESI processing for discovery is one of the areas in which legal practitioners need some level of understanding to fulfill their duty of technology competence for eDiscovery.<\/p>\n

Although it is often given short shrift compared to the steps that come before it (identification, preservation, and collection) and after it (assessment, review, and production), effective processing is critical to the success of those downstream steps and includes a variety of important technical decisions that can have substantive effects. For example, if processing is not performed correctly, or if the wrong decisions are made, searches can be rendered unreliable, materials can be rendered unusable, and production options may be affected. In this free Practice Guide, Consilio Director of Education Matthew Verga, Esq., reviews the fundamentals legal practitioners need to know about processing.<\/p>\n<\/div>
